Hello Jeff,

We are also looking into a green screen setup.  
You might check out the DVK-100 Chromakeyer from DataVideo (~$1200).

One thing to keep in mind is that if you want the video monitor to act as a
mirror, then you'll need to flip the video image.  I'm not sure if this is a
standard feature on chromakeyers or camcorders.  Here is a camcorder that
has the "mirror" feature built-in. (Canon GL-2 MiniDV 3CCD)

From what I can tell, lighting the green backdrop evenly is important to
achieving a realistic green screen effect.  Could others offer advice on
lighting equipment for a green screen setup that would hold up in a museum?

Good Luck, and let me know what you find.

-Eric

Currently, we are looking to install a Green Screen interactive for our
visitors to do weather forecasting.

Does anybody have a recommendation for Green Screen
suppliers/installers?
